Hey Richard the connecting brackets? Those you must purchase separately. There should be a link to Mr. Nostripes brackets.
I found a set on trooper bay. I freaked out ;p

Sorry for the delay. Before tearing apart the armor have you removed all the return edge in the areas effected? This will increase the gap.
If yes then simply take a butter knife and slide it between the cover and armor at one end and slide it down separating the two.

Help. I measured the biceps, fitted the plastic. And after gluing they barely fit. I need to remove the armpit six strip an reglue wider. How do I remove e6000 .... Help. PS. I bought abs if I need to just cut a new strip.

Will it melt or warp the ABS?
Not that I noticed. But I took it slow

I just discovered an electric eraser with a white vinyl eraser... Removes dried e6000 without scoring the plastic!!!

Well there's a few directions you can go here. 1) Using acetone make a ABS slurry using the scrap trimmings. Sand and polish (cheap but time consuming).
2) Purchase a couple different cans of bright white spray paint and test it on some of the scrap trimmings. Sometimes close is good enough (cheap route).
3) Take the armor to a automotive paint supply store and have it color matched, buy the paint then have someone paint it (expensive route).
Luckily the bite is on the back, and tiny. I have a new product, sugru I may try it as a filler

Do you have a re commended paint? My dog chewed a corner on the rear thigh. I've made a repair. I plan on filling the back with putty and caulking the repair line. But I may need to touch up the paint

Thank you. That was perfect. I didn't have to deconstruct the belt. But the boxes are on and glue is now setting. The update was exactly what I needed. Belt is now together.

How thick is the strapping holding the drop box? Thank yal for the advice.

Ok. I edited my question because there is the answer. Thanks

THANK YOU!!!' exactly what I needed
Anovos riveted the holster. But I can drill that and screw it with Chicago screws thank you

Hello Ukswrath, first, thanks for this thread. My box is here and I am scouring your thread. My belt came in and was not assembled. I plan on centering the armor on the cloth belt between the snaps. My question. The holster looks Chicago screwed on. Is there a measurement from the armor belt edge to the placement of the holster's screw? And the two rectangular pieces just free hang? Or are they riveted in place? Thanks

OK, 2.5 days in and everything is cut and sanded. Now to research and start construction.<br>
My first questions<br><br>
The helmet paint is.... Off. And do you need to close the connections to be 501? Like caulk the gaps?<br><br>
Also put in time on the bike to lose 20 lbs this summer

Thanks for the welcome. All I am up to now is trimming and sanding. I'm an artist/art teacher so crafting and propping is something I already do. This is a first with armor and e6000 pics will follow in a couple of weeks. I'm going to read the above mentioned thread tonight.

I just got my Big Brown Anovos Box.
so I am going in for a TK. I have lots of questions.
e6000 or loctite? the directions say usw a cyanoacrylate glue, thats basically a loctite super glue. but everything I read here says e6000, is the e6000 better?
Also my helmet came in from anovos...warped, warped badly. I sent pics to their customer service and they say it is supposed to be that way? did any of yal's come in that way? I may try altering a hasbro black series.
advice needed!
and neck seals? which do yal advise?
I attatched photos of the helmet has anyone else used anovos? is this a problem? or is this normal
